Helpful Score: 1

The best way to read Shakespeare. I have accumulated a number of these for my high school kids and they're far more accessible than a cold reading of the original play. The layout is a page of the original side-by-side with a modern translation. As far as I can tell, the famous lines are unaltered in the modern translation. So if you were to skip the original pages and only read the modern ones, you'd get the story along with the most famous take-aways. Highly recommend.
